GOALS: exploration and understanding of a new world

How ? Direct reactions are one way to explore the nuclear landscape with the RIBs
PROPERTIESStructure and low-lying spectroscopy Matter density distributions Shell structure from single-particle states Excited states Jπ, shell occupancies (spectroscopic factors SF)
Observables and tools:excitation spectra and angular distributions via direct reactions>> simple reactions on p and d targets, study of sp states and of neutron excitation(p,p’), (p,d) (p,t) & (d,d’) (d,p) (d,t) We need at least I > 103 part/s
Incident energy is a key-point: preferably we should adapt it to momentum matching conditions(angular momentum window, Qvalue)
Eg : (p,p’) 15 to 150 MeV/n(depending on the modes we want to excite)
(d,p) 5 to 20 A.MeV ; (p,d) 10 to 30 A.MeV(p,t) Einc between 15 and ~50 MeV/n(d,3He) Einc>50 A.MeV
Evolution of the nuclear structure % isospin?Properties around neutron-rich doubly-magic nuclei ?
EXP PROBLEMS:Incident energies are fixed by the productionmethod of the RIB machines>>not in good matching conditions >> cf (p,t)
Intensities so low that angular distributionsare too limited to probe the nuclear densities
What is thedark side?

Questions
ψ(nucleus)
Quantum mechanical object:
Reaction probe selects one aspect of the |ψnucleus > Our models “project” the nucleus on one specific
aspect of the nuclear interaction.
>>model-dependent extraction of gaps and SF
What is the underlying force behind the structure and the spectroscopy?Form of the tensor force? Sharing between nn np and pp interactions?How to treat consistently the interplay between isospin-dependent effect, tensor interaction, Many-body correlations, Coupling to the continuum ?
Interaction at play between the interacting nuclei ? Shape of the microscopic interaction potentials used for the nuclear reactions ? How good potentials, frameworks are really good for exotic beams ?Validity of optical potentials ? To be checked by measuring carefully the elastic scattering , >> Testing ground for the interaction potential and for the reaction models

Limitation of the nuclear models, ex of the CRC framework
Case of 8He(p,p) – 8He(p,d)7He - 8He(p,t)>> within CDCC the deuteron continuum is correctly taken into account
BUT what about the unbound 7He ? Only a WS form factor is used.
How to treat the nuclear form factor for d+7He all in the continuum?
>>within CDCC and CRC we can adopt microscopic potentials for 8He+p (eg JLM density dependent complex potential using proton and neutron density distributions)But what about d+7He potential, t+6He? >>We rely on phenomenological potentials
Binding potentials for the nuclei >>taken as WSWe adopt prescription for the WS paramters (eg ro=1.25fm) >>> reliability ?

what are the paths of improvement?
Model Side:Use of microscopic densities to generate the nuclear interaction potentials>>Theory needs to work on transition densities, form factors, spectroscopic amplitudesto incorporate the effects enhanced in the case of exotic weakly-bound nuclei:coupling to the continuum, many-body correlations, shell structure embedded in the continuum,3-body nuclear force, >> correlations & interactions VNN(Tz)+VNNN(Tz)

Dream: a general framework for the analysis of direct reactions
We need to define an appropriate unified reaction framework treating:-the interplay between structure and reactions;-the coupling between reaction channels,and between reactions and the transition to the continuum.
When moving towards the drip-lines, the continued validity of the standard models may be questioned:
-- first we deal with very weakly-bound nuclei which may excite, break-up easily or couple to transfer channels during reactions. >> the reaction framework should be improved to take into account these effects as accurately as possible and to treat on the same footing the bound discrete states, the unbound states, the states embedded in the continuum and the scattering states.
-- the other source of uncertainty comes from the validity of the nuclear interaction potential which is used to describe the interaction between projectile and target. --also questions are on the validity of the few-body methods versus methods based upon G-matrix interaction potentials
>> also we need to check the validity of all the models in terms of energy domain.
